Chapter 356 The Hunt Begins
Alka and the other two quickly returned to the camp, which basically became their residence.
"How's the situation in the Land of Fragrance?" Lucilia asked, jumping onto Alka's shoulders.
The three of them came to sit in the middle.
The story began.
"The situation in the Land of Fragrance is not bad, but it is really strictly guarded and it is very troublesome to get in."
Alka said beside him : "As for the two plans we discussed before, the one proposed by Xia Deti has been eliminated."
"What's going on?" Julia asked.
"Because the area where the treasure is hidden is, coincidentally, where the undead are stationed. Unless we can fight our way out, it's better not to go treasure hunting there under this circumstance."
Alka said, smiling apologetically at Narvi, and said, “Now we have been hired by the Fragrance Land to help them clean up the demons wreaking havoc inside.
Do you want to join us? The spoils of war will be shared among you according to your contribution.”
He could see clearly Narvi's strength, which was also at the third stage, but he didn't know whether this member had any treasures.
Having treasures and not having treasures will display two different effects of strength.
Those who have treasures have a huge advantage.
Otherwise, they would not have been able to kill demons so easily as they had shown before.
According to a normal toucher, without a treasure, it is difficult to be as relaxed as them. Fighting against the devil will definitely cost you a price.
Narvi thought about it and nodded.
Now that he's here, he can't stay here forever, he has to find something to do.
Moreover, he had clearly seen the strength displayed by Alka and the others, and it would be safer to follow them than to stay in the camp alone.
Seeing Narvi nod in agreement, Alka also nodded, and the matter was settled.
“Everyone, get ready. After we understand the specific situation tomorrow, we may conduct team operations. This will be more efficient.” A-Ka turned around and looked at everyone and said.
The main reason is that they have too many people, and with the help of the puppet girl, their configuration is relatively complete.
If we act together, our efficiency will be too low.
And they are going to look for demons. Although this world is broken, there are still some rules.
Not to mention that the Land of Spirits is also the territory of a god, although this god is now at the most critical period and has relaxed his control over this place.
But the portals opened by those demons cannot transport too many demons at a time.
Otherwise, this place would have fallen long ago.
This led to the fact that in such a large area, the number of demons was not as many as they imagined. The main reason was that the demons were strong enough and had great mobility, and they caused too much destruction and chaos.
Coupled with their chaotic nature, they have caused quite a bit of trouble here.
To kill them, you need an elite team or a sufficient number of ordinary soldiers.
For the Land of Spirits at this stage, such a configuration is a bit too luxurious.
They were almost trying their best to resist the undead pouring in from the border.
Everyone nodded.
Rest and wait for tomorrow.
…
The next day.
This time, Alka went to the Land of Fragrance alone, while the others made preparations in the camp, awaiting his return.
Soon, Alka passed through layers of checkpoints and arrived at the military camp.
This time, a soldier in the barracks took him directly to a side entrance next to the barracks, where there was a special flower room.
As soon as Alka came in, he saw Gilliana busy inside. Besides her, there were many soldiers in light armor coming and going.
There is a lot of information here.
He could see blue birds flying around constantly.
This should be a place dedicated to processing intelligence.
Alka stood there and waited for a while. Only when Gilliana finished her work did she see him and hurried over.
"Sorry, I'm a bit busy right now. Come with me."
As he said this, he took Alka to the table inside.
He took out a stack of information and handed it to Alka.
"These are some of the detailed intelligence at this stage. The time when the intelligence was transmitted is marked in the upper right corner. You have to figure it out for yourself.
It’s best to come once a week to receive the latest intelligence, which also includes some key targets and the amount of money.”
Alka briefly looked through the data.
It roughly talks about which areas have more demons and which areas have powerful demons roaming.
And marked several demon camps where the demons had established stable portals.
Alka put the information into the space ring and said directly: "Okay, I'll leave first. You go ahead and wait for our good news and prepare the money."
Hearing this, Gilliana smiled and shook her head helplessly, said goodbye to Alka, and got busy again.
Alka quickly returned to the camp on the Flying Swallow and placed the information on the table.
Everyone took some and examined them.
"So much money for clearing out a demon camp?" Jason was a little surprised when he saw the amount below the demon camp information.
According to the information they had, there were only three demon camps that had been discovered. The cheapest one was priced at more than 3,000 gold sails, and the most expensive one was close to 4,000.
This is faster than robbing money.
"Don't even think about it. We can't afford to offend them." Juanlu rolled his eyes and said helplessly.
He also held another document about the demon camp, which clearly stated it.
Demons with higher strength often appear in the camp.
It is estimated that there may be five stages.
"But fortunately, the most powerful of these demons are of the middle level, and I haven't seen any high-level demons. Such powerful demons are not allowed to come out here."
After flipping through the information in his hand, Simon breathed a sigh of relief and said.
The most powerful mid-level demon is at stage 5, which is at the lower part of stage 5.
At least once the fight starts, they will not be the kind that are completely powerless to fight back, and they will have enough chances to escape.
Simply put, there is danger, but it has not yet reached the stage where it is difficult to move forward.
"Look through it and pick out some decent areas and targets."
Alka said as he also began to distinguish.
Soon everyone chose a better area.
It would take about a day to reach their current location if they travelled at full speed.
It was almost the hardest-hit area, where the demons first appeared, and there were a large number of them.
There was also a demon camp originally, but this was the one that was destroyed first.
As a result, although there are many demons in that area, there are not many powerful ones.
It is just enough for them to wreak havoc in there, but of course, they still have to be careful enough.
After deciding on the target, Alka looked at everyone.
"Then let's split up into teams now."
"Me, Xia Deti, Jason, and Julia. The four of us form an assault team and specialize in picking tough tasks."
"Divide the puppet squad into three teams, and the remaining people will form two teams and each lead a team to deal with some easier targets."
Everyone nodded.
Pororo and Mathilda are in the same group.
Juanlu is in a group with Narvi, who is temporarily together with him.
Lucelia and Simon will take Team 5 and Team 9 of the Puppet Team to form a logistics and support team.
"Okay, now that we've made the decision, let's take action."
After everyone had dealt with the situation, they began to move towards the place they had decided on.
A day and night passed quickly.
At this time, they were on a reef that was only slightly exposed above the water. From a distance, it looked nothing special and could even be overlooked.
Looking at this huge reef, Alka thought for a moment: "Let's dig through this reef and make a hole inside it to use as a temporary base."
He did what he said and everyone was immediately attracted.
With Simon's ability, he quickly cut out a small base about three meters deep.
A hidden barrier was constructed on top using stones, a mechanical frame and a certain amount of magic.
A light pink mist drifted over the barrier.
Alka then built a huge teleportation mirror into the bottom.
Everything is ready.
"We will now split into three groups and leave. The remaining group will stay in the base and wait for the others to take over."
Hearing Alka's arrangement, everyone nodded.
The group that was left behind after the draw was Juanlu's group.
He watched Alka and the others leave and hid inside the base.
Jason rode on Urulius's back and glided quickly in the sky.
He will be the scout for Alka's team, responsible for locking onto targets from the sky.
Julia has turned her legs into a fish tail and is swimming in the water, ready to provide support to Alka and the others at any time.
Alka and Xiadaiti stood on the mirror created by Alka and floated on the sea.
"Simon and the others sent a message saying they saw a team of mid-level demons. They seemed to be resting. They have gone around to the other side and marked the place for us." Alka told everyone while looking at the text message coming from the mirror in his hand.
After saying that, he led the three people to deviate from the direction and headed towards the location information sent over.
They had just been heading in this direction for a while when Jason in the sky said, "Alka, there is a demon squad 1.6 kilometers to the left front, they are not strong."
Hearing this, Alka turned to Shadaiti and said, "Pass the message to the others and ask them to come."
As messages were passed between them, each of them locked onto their own targets.
Soon, Alka and his companions, who had taken a detour, ran into the demon team that was resting in front.
Since Alka and his men were not completely hidden and were heading straight towards them, the other party quickly discovered them.
"They've spotted us and are heading towards us!"
The demon team ahead had a total of six members, but only two of them were little devils.
The intermediate-level demon at the head was huge.
It is about 5 meters long, but its body shape is not human-like. If you have to say it is similar, it is more like a gorilla.
The torso is not strong, but the arms hanging down are like two hammers.
The arms hanging down had no fingers and no palms, just like a flat surface.
The legs are like cow hooves.
There were no eyes on the entire head, and it looked like it was wearing a helmet with a gap.
A red light flickered in the gap, swaying left and right.
There is a single red eye hidden inside.
The rainbow light slid down from the sky, dragging several rainbows with it, and smashed into the enemy's team.
The crystals instantly spread like frozen ice.
The two little ghosts were frozen in place in an instant and turned into crystals.
The other demons had many wounds on their bodies.
Urulius, carrying Jason, fell from the sky.
An orange-yellow light flashed.
The eyes of a thin demon holding a broken blood-red long blade blurred.
The leg wrapped in silver light had already kicked him in the neck.
With a crackling sound, the head immediately tilted to one side and the whole body fell into the water.
However, the demon's strong body did not cause him to lose his life even with such fatal wounds.
The intense pain instead aroused the demon's anger. His eyes flashed red and he roared angrily.
He held on with his sword, trying to stand up and continue to join the battle.
A blue meteor streaked across the sky.
Alka had disappeared from the ground at some point and appeared high in the sky, smashing down with a strong impact like a comet falling from the sky.
"Get out of the way!"
Jason, who went down with the crystal dragon, rolled over to avoid the big demon's punch. He looked at the meteor falling from the sky with his eyes wide open.
"Urulius, take me away!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a tail wrapped around his body, and Urulius immediately jumped out from the pile of demons and spread out.
As it flapped its wings, it immediately flew seven or eight meters away and hid away.
The light that Xia Daiti transformed into also disappeared at the origin.
Julia, who was on the periphery, did not approach. She turned the magic power in her hand, and the sea surface froze into a spike, piercing a demon and nailing it into the sea.
"Bang!"
The strong impact hit the water.
The splash of water turned into a column of water like a bomb, rising into the sky.
A large amount of sea water fell like raindrops.
“Hoo, hoo…”
The sound of panting was transmitted along the water curtain.
The few people who unfolded looked inside.
Alka panted and rubbed his fists, "It feels so good!"
At this time, a lot of cracks had appeared in the vine layer below, and Alka was floating on the water by standing on the mirror.
Everyone looked at the giant demon that had only attacked a few times from beginning to end and didn't even say a word.
His arms, which were like iron bars, were completely broken in the middle. Compared to his fists, his thin body was folded together, and his legs were completely folded.
Gray-black blood like molten iron flowed out of his body, dyeing the surrounding sea water into ink.
Seeing this, Alka quickly took out the material stripper he carried with him from his pocket ring.
"This demon is too big to let go," Alka said uncomfortably.
I had no choice but to take out the tools and manually begin to dissect the demon hanging on the material stripper.
The most important thing is to collect the gray-black blood flowing out of the body.
"This power is so exaggerated!" Jason, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but say as he looked at the situation around him.
Julia swam over from the edge and pushed aside the demon that was frozen into ice and crystal in front of her.
Only half of one of them was left.
The other half had turned into broken crystals scattered in the water, mixed with the surrounding sea water and disappeared.
Looking at Alka who was collecting blood and dissecting the body, Xia Daiti frowned and said, "Don't make such a big noise next time. The power is already too much."
Hearing this, Alka nodded repeatedly.
"I just wanted to try out what effect the most exaggerated power can cause. I have to say, it is very satisfying ."
Because the demon in his hand, which was only a corpse, belonged to the metal and steel series in the demon encyclopedia.
This demon is known for its physical toughness and defense.
He is the type who is not very good at using magic and specializes in hand-to-hand combat.
Eat by relying on your strong physical strength.
The result was that this demon, which was known for its physical defense, was killed by its own blow.
It is conceivable how powerful the force generated by the maximum power turning into a meteor is.
The most important thing is that it is fast.
This made him very satisfied.
What a pity, it also caused irreversible damage to the body.
Alka, after a quick check, found that the most valuable material in this demon was probably his arms that were like iron rods.
What a pity, I discounted it myself.
If you want to sell it, the price will definitely be greatly discounted, but if you just use it yourself it won’t be affected too much.
Metal and steel materials like this are extremely tempting to Simon, and he will probably use them all.
Thinking of this, Aka no longer felt so uncomfortable and started the autopsy quickly.
Xia Daiti and others who were waiting nearby also passed the information here to others.
Until Alka dissected the entire demon into a pile of materials.
A ball of holy light appeared in Xia Daiti's hand, illuminating the remaining discarded flesh and blood.
The holy light was like a flame, immediately igniting the entire mass of flesh and blood, followed by gray-black smoke and a pungent smell. One could even hear a howl similar to an angry roar from the crackling sound of the burning.
These remaining flesh and blood cannot be discarded casually, otherwise it will pollute the surrounding environment. It must be cleaned up by using positive energy, or burning with a relatively high temperature flame.
It is naturally best to use the flame of holy light to perform the operation, so as to avoid any hidden dangers.
After the matter was dealt with, everyone left.
